Yes, but only with an NTFS partition accessed by my WDTV Live which is invisible to my 3260. Still, even if I had that many files on the FAT32 partition it would not necessarily mean that they would be accessible on your 3520 cause AFAIK the players have different chipsets/firmware. That’s why I wrote the only thing for you to do is to try it out yourself (once back in Malta). Bring a laptop so you can move files between dirs/partitions to be on the safe side.

Hello Marvin,

thank you for your answer. I thought this was the most appropriate place to ask.

So your player works with without problems, let me ask you, does your hard drive contain more than 1000 files?

What’s so difficult about posting a Philips question in the Philips FAQ comment section? Gonna move it there soon.

Anyway, I’m afraid you gonna have to test it yourself since Philips’ firmware might simply restrict what (little) FAT32 enables as they did with their MCM393 Micro Hi-Fi System and its puny 500 files max. I haven’t had any problems with my 3260 but who knows what they did with the 3250?

A workaround for any such limit should be to divide the files over dirs and/or partitions.

Guten abend!

I have a Philips 3520 and I wonder if it has any limits when it comes to the number of files and folders? I have read the manual but it doesnt say anything about it: download.p4c.philips.com/files/d/dvp3520_12/dvp3520_12_dfu_eng.pdf

My harddrive is 1TB, FAT32-formatted. 1772 files in total, 634 folders in total. About 1-4 files in each.

I can’t try it out right now since the DVD Player is located in Malta and I live in Sweden.

Any thoughts?

Hope you will reply.

Eric

Said buddy of mine extracted the 3260 codes with his Pronto remote which resulted in RC6 Mode 0 Codes which apparently aren’t compatible with Lirc.

However, he found that the codes of the 5982 and 3260 are identical so you can use those from the URL you listed and add those three missing codes:

Eject 0xBE
Setup 0x7E
Return 0x7D
